                Commission 27 Report 1987-1990

The Commission 27 report, to be published in the next volume
of the IAU Transactions, will contain summaries of the scientific
developments during the last three years. These summaries
provide one of the best means for the astronomer inside and
outside the field to find out about new results and discoveries.
A number of active researchers in the various subfields have
been chosen (and have kindly agreed) to write the reports.
These reports are traditionally based on literature searches. In
addition, all active workers in the field are invited to send
preprints and brief summaries of recent results directly to the
relevant co-outhors listed below. These should be received by
August 1.
